Main point: Billions of rows X millions of columns
Key Features:
- Modeled after Google’s BigTable
- Uses Hadoop’s HDFS as storage
- Map/reduce with Hadoop
- Query predicate push down via server side scan and get filters
- Optimizations for real time queries
- A high performance Thrift gateway
- HTTP supports XML, Protobuf, and binary
- Jruby-based (JIRB) shell
- Rolling restart for configuration changes and minor upgrades
- Random access performance is like MySQL
- A cluster consists of several different types of nodes
Best used: Hadoop is probably still the best way to run Map/Reduce jobs on huge datasets. Best if you use the Hadoop/HDFS stack already.
Examples: Search engines. Analysing log data. Any place where scanning huge, two-dimensional join-less tables are a requirement.
